Friendship is Card Games: Micro-Series and Friends Forever #5 · 12:58pm Nov 20th, 2016
Between hearing things and Pinkie Pie, this week’s theme appears to be insanity. Let’s see how nuts it gets.

Leooooooooooo
Greetings from Brooklyn! Visiting my sister for the weekend, so there may be some Group Precipitation delays. However, I made sure to get the card blog ready over the week, and she and her wife are much later risers than I am.
So.
I've been wondering how to write this blog post for the better part of four weeks. I liked the idea of a longer post working out feelings, or musing about the nature of grief, or sharing an experience with a rejected Simpsons couch gag* that became eerily relevant not twelve hours later. I might still do one of those things, but for now there's no way other way to say it than to say it.
My father passed away last month. To the day, in fact.
General answer is no, especially if the story's built to service them and not vice versa.
First off, the Sonic thing's all set. Not related to what I was talking about at all.
What DOES tie into my tiny soapbox is this week's story, an OC romance fic. Yeah, when's the last time we've had one of those?
Season 8 premiers next week, which means we must again bid farewell to the comics for a time. So, let’s see if they can go out on a high note as…
We open with Jay Fosgitt.
Welp. Let’s hope that’s not an omen.
Quoting from Ring's announcement last night.
The OC fic's done with, go read that if you want.
And here's part two of the Past Sins anniversary riff. Have fun with that.
I'd like to preface this by saying that I assembled this little document to go with a story I recently posted. Memory of Forever. I encourage you to avoid looking at it until you've read that story all the way to the end--it will link to and also include spoilers.
We are impressed with today's story.
We Are Forever
[Equestria Girls] [Comedy] [Slice of Life] • 9,973 words
The pilot episode of the Rainbooms' reality television show, in which the band breaks up.
As expected, mild drama, washout humour, awkward pop culture references, and character bending to breaking point ensues.
Hey!
So yea, Everfree Northwest happened. It was a whirlwind like most cons are, but with the added twist of Twilight's Book Nook, EFNW's first-ever bookstore. It went swimmingly. IIRC, we sold ~72% of our books by revenue and ~60% by unit (which is to say, a lot of the bigger, more expensive books sold well), and I signed a lot of autographs. So many autographs, holy crap. Apparently, y'all like Compati: all 25 copies sold out!
Thank god, the fires are gone~
Well I mean there's still a lot of fires everywhere-
They're alllllll gone!
Like, cutting through the middle of Washington and Oregon, and touching the tip of California is this big line of fires.
I'm perfectly safe!
Bit of a mop-up operation this week. Given four Equestria Girls shorts and one Friends Forever comic unaccounted for, I’m going to bring both to a close in one fell swoop. As always, links are provided for the shorts. Let’s get started:
Didn't think that deleting the chapter and recreating it would do that. Sorry to everyone who lost their comments and now I'm sad I lost those 5.6k views it had listed.

As some of you might have noticed I was gone completely for nearly a whole week. In fact I didn't post any chapters. Why? Becuase my internet was taken out by the storm that hit the south last week. That's right I had no internet at all.
A while ago, Fimfic user Oroboro—the one person whose description I had to edit in the Bronycon blogs, since my editors told me that I came off as Too Horny—hosted the third Sunset Shimmer contest in this very website. It was quite an event, and I wasn’t part of the judging panel, because Oroboro told me I came off as Too Horny (and then winked at me). I’m telling you about this because—listen.
Lauren Faust, thank you very much for bringing My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic into the animation realm. The brony fandom, Fimfiction, EQD, and fanmade content wouldn't have existed if it weren't for you and your team of amazing and talented animators, writers, producers, songwriters, composers, and voice actors.
Hey readers,
Been a while since I've done one of these! As you may have heard, my Patreon stuff has gone over some major changes with a MUCH more active Discord server and different approaches to rewards. Also, I take booze money as a form of gratitude now.
